Mrs. Chegwidden was born in Mullins, South Carolina on April 19, 1963 to Mary Maxine Martin of Goldsboro and the late Thelbert Hilton Martin.  She was a member of Cornerstone Church in Fremont where she was an extensive volunteer with her church. Kim was a staple in her many fellowships where she worshipped with her friends and family. Active in many churches around Goldsboro throughout her life; Kim enjoyed planning activities for the kids in the ministries she attended. Kim spent time working with children outside of the church as well and taking care of the elderly.

Family was very important to Kim. She enjoyed nothing more than seeing her grandchildren and taking them for ice cream at Stay Sweet Bakery on Fridays after a long week of school; always in their tie-dye shirts.

In addition to her mother, she is survived by her loving husband of 35 years, Walter "Walt" Chegwidden; two sons, Aaron Chegwidden and wife, Katie of Pikeville and Kyle Chegwidden and wife, Alyssa of Winston-Salem; one sister, Kelly Martin Mott of Pikeville; two grandchildren, the apples of her eye, Emma & Raelynn and three nephews, 
Jacob, Samuel and wife, Julie and Zachary and wife, Andrea.

While Kim is no longer physically with us, we carry on her loving and caring spirit.

Kim loved bright colors and being comfortable in what she was wearing. We kindly ask that everyone wear tie-dye shirts and/or crocs in her remembrance to her celebration of life. 

Professional services entrusted and in the care of Howell Funeral Home & Crematory in Goldsboro.
